Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Use newsroom_submit_local_packet only for locally researched editorial packets; the Site processes that local job directly and never invokes the provider-backed drafter or publisher. Inspect the private draft and gate with newsroom_get_writer_job. Publish only fully gated drafts using newsroom_publish_reviewed_draft. Grant research tools remain separate and may return x402 payment challenges.

newsroom_submit_local_packet — Submit Owner Studio local research packet
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Submit a complete, locally researched packet through Owner Studio local mode. This does not use the provider-backed drafter or publisher. The Site processes the owner’s local job directly and returns its latest status. Use a new UUID idempotencyKey for each packet and reuse it only for an exact retry. Do not submit a replacement or published-story revision through this tool.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add genuine-good-grants-mcp --url https://genuinegood.online/api/grants/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable genuine-good-grants-mcp in your MCP settings.
